Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1Benign:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health | Oct 01, 2023 | This missense variant replaces alanine with threonine at codon 1187 of the BRIP1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in one individual each affected with breast cancer (PMID: 26921362) and ovarian cancer (PMID: 34503154). This variant also has been identified in 13/282120 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD) and in 2 individuals age 70 years or older without cancer in the FLOSSIES database (https://whi.color.com/variant/17-59760848-C-T). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. - |
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Jul 19, 2021 | This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. - |

Familial cancer of breast;C1836860:Fanconi anemia complementation group J Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp | Feb 01, 2024 | This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1187 of the BRIP1 protein (p.Ala1187Thr). This variant is present in population databases (rs367610893, gnomAD 0.05%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 26921362, 35264596). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 182337). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. - |
BRIP1-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria provided | clinical testing | PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences | Dec 08, 2023 | The BRIP1 c.3559G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ala1187Thr. This variant was detected in two individuals with breast cancer (Supplementary Table 2, Easton et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 26921362; Table S3, Guindalini. 2022. PubMed ID: 35264596). This variant is reported in 0.048% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD. This variant has conflicting interpretations regarding its pathogenicity in ClinVar, ranging from likely benign to uncertain significance (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/182337/). Although we suspect that this variant may be benign, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. - |

not specified Benign:1
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp | Aug 13, 2019 | Variant summary: BRIP1 c.3559G>A (p.Ala1187Thr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.6e-05 in 282120 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00048 within the African or African-American subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within African or African-American control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 7.7 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in BRIP1 causing Breast Cancer phenotype (6.3e-05), suggesting a benign role for the variant. In addition, this variant has also been reported in 2/2559 African American women who were older than age 70 and cancer free (in the FLOSSIES database). The variant, c.3559G>A, has been reported in the literature in an individual affected with Breast Cancer (Easton_2016), however without strong evidence for causality. Therefore, this report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Breast Cancer. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Six submitters have provided clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation, and all of them classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. - |
